No, Im not there. However, I know several buyers that are there and have already bought horses. They looked at every horse in the first 3 sessions, and all said the same thing, that they were Adena's culls. Their words, not mine.

Thanks to everyone who posted about the Giant's Causeway/Honey Ryder colt. I have followed that female familly with interest for years, and was basically appalled when I saw the foal went so cheap. I didn't know the inside scoop, though, so appreciate the insight. I still hope the foal has some success. It can't help who consigned it!

I did notice that Honey Ryder's dam, Cuando Quiere, had a Bernardini filly who sold earlier in the session for $400K+. I believe the dam's previous filly, also a Bernardini, went for $300K plus. I just hope they don't ruin Honey Ryder as a broodmare.

Boycott, not so sure, the goings on of Adena currently are no different from any other day, really.

I do realize that Mr. Frank is a wee bit of a volatile character, but In many ways he has done a lot for racing. As someone who is a very tiny breeder in Ontario, I am grateful for Adena bringing new stallions to our program as pickings have always been slim for us & they are I believe bringing another 4 new Stallions up in 2011.

The Stallion Station they are building will be terrific for Ontario Breeding. We need all the help we can get.

We have our Ontario bred Colt that didn't sell in the CTHS sale September 7th, hanging out at home right now, not sure what to do with him yet. I really struggle with where the sale should go from here?

In france with the standardsbreds, the societe general (the jockeyclub) forces you to take such a broodie out of production.
As the broodies products, after five times a non winner, are not elegible for any
preminuns any more. In france that is 60% bonus up to the purses
